The unthinkable has happened

August 30, 2007

The world can be such a bitch mother that's fond of irony.

Gah…

Here's the thing, I reformatted my computer since it was reaching critical crapiness levels. Never mind the 30-minute start-up, the dwindling free disk space, and the very long download times. MS Office stopped working. Yes, WTF?!?!??!? When you can't do schoolwork on your computer is a good time to wipe the whole PC clean.

I borrowed a Windows 2000 installer from a friend and asked other friends on how to do the thingy. I followed what they said and found that reformatting is a pretty easy process. Disk C was now clean and the conputer was working fine, oh so fine. Start-up was at speeds that wowed us unfortunates that have gotten used to start-up times that stretched to infinity, and we can now use Office again. Yay!

Problem was, I forgot that reformatting wipes the computer clean of everything. Our sound card stopped working and our modem (yes, we use a 56k modem) lost its ability to connect to the internet. It was most likely a driver problem. I downloaded the modem driver, but I couldn't do the same with the sound card since I don't know what brand the thingy was. Anyway, I was ready to fiddle around with the computer and hopefully use it like we did before. It took a few days to get the driver since I left the USB cord for my mp3 player and I had to go back to my friend's in order to get it. I got the cord, and I could now fix the modem driver problem, install windows media player and winrar, and get to work fixing the sound card. Happiness.

Then the fates decided to play with lil 'ol me.

They killed my PC.

It won't effin' turn on.

WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!?

I'm now typing this crap in an internet shop near our house and I'm having a jolly good time. I'm enjoying the oh-so-nice gangztah playlist blaring from the server's speakers. I'm enjoying not experiencing the speeds that I'd expect from computer shops. I'm enjoying the people, shouting and stuff.

Wheeeeee!!!!!

I'm feeling the fates aren't done with me yet. Expect me having an aura of absolute emo-ness in the coming days. I don't know why. I just feel it.

HAVING PROBLEMS WITH YOUR COMPUTER SUCKS!!!

well, computer problems are much less complicated than girl or boy problems. so count yourself among the lucky.

my twisted logic requires me to get a boyfriend who can fix my PC whenever. it’s a strategy that i have found most successful.
